Trachycarpus fortuanus fortunei nanus Alcea heavily pie crust-edged

heavily pie crust-edged

horizontally-held flower that opens in early spring just after the leaf has fully unfurled

I was taken (not literally) by this tetraploid mutation of Hosta 'On Stage' when I visited Hans Hansen's Minnesota garden

who acquired it as a pass-along plant from her grandmother

when it eventually fades to all green

Trachycarpus fortuanus fortunei nanus Alcea heavily pie crust-edgedWe are thrilled to offer just a few of these special hybrids, a cross of two windmill palm species, the typical full sized windmill palm and the dwarf Trachycarpus nanus. This is a new cross and we don't know what to expect from the offspring, so these are for gardeners who love to experiment. These are in extremely short supply and will sell out quickly. Thanks to German plantsman Jost Wallis for sharing seed.
